Mid 25's for me race pace online though quite dismayed to see the GTC record time is a 24  :o

Another great track but every easy and painful to make an error

Good race in the end & very pleased with 2nd, but until I caught TT & Apex (about 17 laps in) I had nothing to do, as people ahead kept dropping off the track :(

Bit lucky really, I think Apex was probably struggling with tyres, but TT definitely had the faster pace over me even to the end, I was just lucky to be able to ram ahead on the straight & probably slow him through a couple of corners (at my full pace :laugh:), which was just enough to keep him at arms length :sweatdrop:

Bring back the fun of last week, dicing for positions every lap sat somewhere in the middle of a five car train 8) 8) 8)

Started really well for the first 10ish laps less than 3 seconds or so seprated ns, apex, me and tt then i caught a bit too much kerb on the left kink before the corkscrew which sent me off then kept falling off every few laps or so but still happy.

Nothing to add, really. ;D Except - I wanted to force Apex into mistake, so you took that away from me. ::) Will be hardly possible on Road America where RSR will eat F430 for breakfast. :P
